Wargame Illustration

This is something different and experimental - illustration of my wargames. These are from my recent game where my imagi-nation of Beerstein fought a battle against Necrolia or the Undead.

   The archbishop, makes a Crumble Undead prayer which causes skeleton warriors to collapse in heaps of bones.


The Beersteiner hero, Ferdinand Sourkrout, and the priest, Julius, are pushed into the moat by the Undead horde. Julius is hampered by his heavy robe and sinks below the surface.  Ferdinand defiantly brandishes his magical sword, even as his plate armor drags him below the surface.
  The First Beersteiner Infantry is decimated by the Wight King and his skeleton warriors. The last to fall, as he and his fellow soldiers are pushed back into the moat, is the flag bearer.

The Beersteiner First Heavy Cavalry is the victim of an aging hex spell from the Necromancer Lord, which turns them to dust.

Liz and Julie Pen Portraits

                               Last Sunday I did these gel pen portraits at the portrait group.



Sepia Portrait of Woman & Dog

 



I drew these last Sunday at the portrait group. For a change I drew with a brown pencil. I did the one of the dog and arm first but started again when did not have room to include Billy's owner, Julie. Artist, Glen, told me how much he liked the line drawing of the dog, so I included it here.
